Jessie Atkin posted a new blog on Digital Landing about the USB shaped like a credit card.
Because USB flash drives weren’t easy enough to carry around in the first place Top tech has designed a new travel style drive for everyone.
Slim Data is a USB drive as a card. That’s right, it’s like having another credit card, except this one folds in half to reveal the USB and attach to any Windows, Mac, or Linux machine. There are five colors at 4GB and $25 each (not a huge price difference compared to your average flash drive.
Flash drives are all travel size, but if you’re walking around with a wallet in your pocket anyway save your other pocket space and add your USB drive to your already full pocket. Just hope that card doesn’t get lost amongst the other hundreds or cards already bursting in your wallet.

Mini and Mighty
Jessie Atkin posted a new blog on Digital Landing! Read about the smallest flashdrive yet.
USB drives were small enough before, but hey, gadgets are always evolving at a time where size still does matter.
Eagletec has developed pretty much the smallest flash drive yet at 19×15x16 mm. It still holds between 4 and 8 GB (depending on how much cash you’re willing to put down). The size is smaller but storage and pricing are still about on par with many other flash drives on the market today.
I’m definitely an advocate of the flash drive, I’m an advocate for multiple flash drives, but in spending so much time depending on one I know what problems arise when a normal flash drive is misplaces. I don’t know how I feel about shrinking my most misplaces gadget any further, even if the Eagletec Nano does come with a lanyard.

Store Better than Before
Jessie Atkin posted a blog on Digital Landing. Read about the latest in flash drive updates.
So we know I love the flash drive, so it’s no surprise I’m intrigued by Leyio’s new personal file sharing device.
It’s a flash drive taken to the next level. It stores files, can take files off of other flash drives (it has its own USB port built right in) . It’s secured with a finger print scanner and it can wirelessly transfer data to your computer or another Leyios.
It comes with a digital screen, but doesn’t use wi fi. Wireless connections come through ultrawide-band radio, which means to wirelessly transfer to a computer you’ll need to buy a little extra. It’s due out this month :)

Simple Storage
Jessie Atkin posted a new blog on Digital Landing about the cable that will link your computer and external hard drive so your files are truly safe.
With applications like Apple’s Time Machine automatic and personalized computer back up is the new trend in safe storage. But what about everyone who bought external hard drives before the new boom? Shouldn’t they be rewarded for their foresight? For their understanding that backing up your files, especially before computers were as reliable as they are now, was a necessity and not just a commodity?
Well, Clickfree has decided to reward those intelligent few with the Transformer Cable. All you have to do is plug the transformer cable into the USB slot on your computer, plug the USB hard drive into the cable, and your files will automatically back up. How simple! The only question is, with hard drive prices dropping every day, how do you feel about the $59 price tag?
